“He is in quarantine at the moment – in inhuman conditions. The further presence of Bilyal Adilov in the conditions of the pre-trial detention center endangers not only his health, but also his life, the lives of those around him. The doctors of the pre-trial detention center have confirmed that Adilov has COVID-19 and has a document confirming it. There is a possibility that the people who contacted him could also be infected, which can lead to sad consequences. Adilov's defenders must take all necessary measures to change the measure of restraint for him”,- said lawyer Ayder Azamatov.
We remind that on March 27, 2019, Russian security forces in the occupied Crimea carried out mass searches in 26 Crimean Tatars' dwellings. Literature was seized from some activists, which, according to Crimean Solidarity, the security forces planted themselves. In addition to books and brochures, people were confiscated phones, tablets, laptops, passports. The servicemen behaved rudely. It is reported that they used physical force against detainees and entered the houses in shoes. Lawyers who arrived at the site of the searches were not allowed to contact the detainees. According to the results of the searches, 20 people were suspected of involvement in the Hizb ut-Tahrir organization, which is banned in the Russian Federation. On March 28, three more Crimean Tatar activists were detained, in whose dwellings searches were carried out in their absence. On March 27-28, the occupation court arrested all 23 detainees after searches. They chose a preventive measure in the form of detention. Subsequently, all the individuals involved in this so-called case were repeatedly extended the terms of their arrest.
